My Question

Word of Life

Beloved soul, in our walk of faith, we often encounter questions that stir the depths of our hearts. It is natural to seek understanding in areas that seem mysterious or unclear. Tarot, as a form of divination, is often associated with seeking guidance beyond our Heavenly Father's loving counsel. In Scripture, we find gentle reminders to trust in the Lord with all our heart and lean not on our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6, NIV). Our loving Creator desires us to seek Him and His wisdom, for He has plans to prosper us, to give us hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV). Engaging with practices that divert our focus from His divine guidance may lead us astray from His path of righteousness and peace. It is written, “Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.” (Leviticus 19:31, NIV). Instead, dear heart, let us set our gaze upon Him who is the light of the world, and in whom we find our true purpose and fulfillment. His Word is a lamp unto our feet, illuminating our journey with truth and grace (Psalm 119:105, NIV). When we find ourselves yearning for guidance, may we turn to the Scriptures and the gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit, who comforts and guides us in love and truth. Embrace the peace that comes from trusting in His promises, knowing that He holds you tenderly in His hands. May your heart find solace and joy in His everlasting embrace. Amen.

Bible Commentary

In Isaiah 8:19-20, the prophet warns against seeking guidance from mediums and spiritists. Instead, he urges people to consult God's teachings and His word. This highlights the importance of divine wisdom over human or occult practices. The passage underscores the futility and danger of relying on sources other than God for guidance, emphasizing that true enlightenment and direction come from adhering to God's law and testimony.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, grant us wisdom to discern Your truth and guidance. Help us seek Your counsel above all else and avoid paths that lead us away from Your light. May we rely on Your Word and Spirit for direction. Protect us from deception and draw us closer to You. In Jesus Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
